Psalms 122

¹I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go unto the house of Jehovah.

²Our feet are standing Within thy gates, O Jerusalem,

³Jerusalem, that art builded As a city that is compact together;

⁴Whither the tribes go up, even the tribes of Jehovah, `For' an ordinance for Israel, To give thanks unto the name of Jehovah.

⁵For there are set thrones for judgment, The thrones of the house of David.

⁶Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: They shall prosper that love thee.

⁷Peace be within thy walls, And prosperity within thy palaces.

⁸For my brethren and companions' sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee.

⁹For the sake of the house of Jehovah our God I will seek thy good. Psalm 123 A Song of Ascents.
